Not confused. I KNOW what it is.
I think for me it was the way you presented the thread: ????where my gays at?? "Love Hurts. Your lies, they cut me. Now your words don't mean a thing. I don't give a damn if you ever loved me..." -Cher, "Woman's World" | |

Not offended.
I would've loved to have witnessed THE BALLS during that time that Paris is Burning portrayed.  MyeternalgrattitudetoPhil&Val.Herman said "We want sweaty truckers at the truck stop!

I LOVE voguing, and I think it's a criminally marginalized subcultural art form.
There's not much of a ballroom scene where I am, and I'd never personally attempt to vogue. (It'd be downright tragic.  ) But I'd love to catch some events.
Has anyone seen the ballroom documentary How Do I Look? [Edited 5/29/10 19:40pm] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Its sad that she was killed right before the "Paris Is Burning" movie was finished  I could imagine she would've loved seeing herself in the film.
I loved that film so much, I went back and ordered this one... It features some of the people who appeared in "Paris"(Jose Extravaganza, Willi Ninja, Octavia St. Laurent and the Queen Of Harlem Pepper Labija among others). I'm expecting this DVD later this week

In this context, "ballroom" pretty much means black/Latino gay clubs. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Yep! Willi Ninja, Pepper Labeija, Venus Xtravaganza and my girl Octavia St. Laurent are gone. RIP.

The same person who directed "How Do I Look?" released this documentary also, I think you can find BOTH films on DVD(used) from Amazon:
